Proposal for a New Model for gTLD Launching Program

Objective:
Suggestions for the review through related workgroups and public comments.

My Vision:
I believe that ICANN will remain not- for-profit organization and will facilitate Globalization and Localization capabilities to all users who are enjoying with the Internet Layer on the map of the World and new layers are going to be launched to provide more opportunities to acquire property at Internet world.

PROPOSAL:
I propose (for ICANN) that:
1. New TLDs should be a general Name Script.
For example instead of .Nokia, it should be .Camera

Cost Estimation - new gTLD Application Fee

Finally the cost of new gTLDs have announced, which is about US$185,000/- per application for 500 applicants.

Annual projected renewal fees for new gTLD registry is about US$75,000/-.

Its very high cost, last time it was US$50,000/- per application. I think only big organization will appear.

Are you disappointed?
